Miracle Man

He appears at my door
with a story that sounds real.
But the intent of his visit
is to beg, borrow, or steal.
He’ll visit for an hour
trying to build up his nerve. 
To ask me for a loan, 
like I’m the federal reserve.
He always asks to borrow
but he’s never payed back.
I’m told he spends it on weed
and sometimes smack.
It’s even been suggested
that due to advanced age.
He always paid me back
and my brain didn’t engage.
Now, I won’t loan him money
or give him any more work,
I’ve taught him how to treat me,
which makes me the jerk.

War - Bitcoin Poem 047

The United States sustains their forever
   Wars because it’s easy to borrow capital 
      It’s easy to borrow as the Federal Reserve 
         Literally prints money in Quantitative Easing
            And keeps the interest rate forcibly very low
               This allows billions to flow to forever wars 
                  Therefore
               If we let the market determine interest rates
            And if we move to a hard money standard
         Such as Bitcoin, with an immutable supply
      Then unpopular or unproductive wars are
   Much harder for governments to sustain
Leading to more safety and more peace


Premium Member Seigniorage

Could platinum coin deposit
In the U.S. Treasury's closet
Our debts enjoin? 
A trillion-dollar coin
Might yield a government profit


Author's Note: Section 31 U.S.C. § 5112 of the United States Code authorizes the Treasury Department to "mint and issue platinum bullion coins" in any denominations the Secretary of the Treasury may choose. This privilege only extends to platinum coins. Thus, if the Treasury were to mint a few one-trillion dollar platinum coins, it could deposit such coins in the general fund instead of issuing debt (lol). 

Seigniorage is the difference between the receipts from the Federal Reserve System from the sale of circulating coins at face value and the costs of minting and distributing the coins. Seigniorage is deposited periodically to the General Fund where it reduces the government's need to borrow.

Of course, this might create a wave of inflation. But we should all realize that the value of paper currency eventually tends to zero. In any event, the inflation we've experienced in 2022 is just a taste of what's to come since the politicians don't want to explain a depression to their voters. We're entering strange times.

Premium Member Two Peas In a Pod


We're off the charts alone! But we're
     more off the charts together—a fact
that's evident and plainly clear.
     Though opposites, they say, attract,
we are apart (but we adhere,
     as two best friends who interact).

Each one more than one in a billion,
     you and I rule the normal curve:
a point that's no sin or rude penillion,
     but a blessing that we both deserve.
More than one in a hundred quintillion
     together, we're the Federal Reserve!

We are like two peas in a pod,
     with brains in quantum entanglement.
It's spooky how chance works, and odd,
     how two minds so intelligent
can intersect in life. Only God
     can be this good and benevolent!

Premium Member Who Rules Over All of You

In the USA, it is The Federal Reserve that ultimately rules,
over all of us, the president's administration too.
The president's administration has pledged to devotedly serve,
all of their superiors on the board of The Federal Reserve.
We The People,
all blindly follow,
all they who continue to devotedly serve,
that handful of bankers, lawyers and businessmen,
who comprise The Federal Reserve.

Premium Member The Federal Reserve

The Federal Reserve is often confused with the U S Treasury,
so I am here to eliminate this confusion with the utmost of clarity.
The Federal Reserve Is Not the U S Treasury.
It is a private owned central bank that has driven the U S Treasury,
into perpetual bankruptcy.
Who funds the U S Treasury?
The taxpayer, you and me.
We also fund the Federal Reserve weekly.
Federal withholding from our paycheck goes to the Federal Reserve directly,
to bail out governments' financing inefficiencies.
The  CEOs and their cronies at the Federal Reserve,
are all enjoying a super rich lifestyle they do not deserve,
provided by the blood, sweat and tears from all of our labors.

The God of Money

MANIPULATED MONEY.

WALL STREET.

FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE.

THE ONE DOLLAR BILL.

THE EYE OF PROVIDENCE.

NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM.

IN GOD WE TRUST.

ANNUIT COEPTIS.

THE GREAT SEAL.

THE BROTHERHOOD OF THE SNAKE.

THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.


IS THIS OUR MONEY?

DO WE LIVE IN DEBT?

$21 TRILLION DOLLARS IN DEBT.

WHERE IS THE ABUNDANCE?

HOW FAIR IS THIS SYSTEM OF MONEY?

OVER TAXED AND UNDER PAID.

DO NOT QUESTION THE AUTHORITY MADE,

OF A MANIPULATED TAX SYSTEM,

AND OF MANIPULATED MONEY.

IT IS THE GOD OF MONEY.

Playing the Trump Card

Ready to WIN,
Very very RICH,
Yet not owned by special interests,
He loves his money more than you,
Yet not as much as he loves his country,
He has the politicians numbers, 
And their lobbyists too,
Has an EGO large enough to crush our enemies,
Understands the BIG SCAM of the Federal Reserve,
Keeping us down through fear and propaganda,
He is the Howard Cosell of 2016 Presidential Race,
Telling it like it is, not how Big Brother dictates,
Has Washington D.C. establishment shaking in their boots,
He knows the PEOPLE are ready to take their country back,
And the more the empty suits attack him the higher his polls rise,
The winning hand is within his grasp and he is ready to use it,
He is turning the tables on the government scare mongers,
A billionaire who wants to raise the Middle Class to glory again,
Ready to really stop illegal aliens from breaking our laws,
I, for one, am ready to cast my vote for Donald Trump,
The next President Of The United States!

Powers of heaven
Shaken. 		Gates brought down
Deify. Defy urbanely
Programming genetically
Sub sonic sounds
Domestic mirage of liberty

Homeland invasion - Counter-intelligence

Conducted on our own nation
On us.
Claiming they must
In defense of supposed
Freedom

Islamic threats - Chinese Debts
Pakastani! Illuminati?
War is waged
In name of worship

Distractions we serve
Make sick

Federal reserve
Printing our cage
Turning the page of peraphecy
Illusory trick

Consecrate history
Set the stage

For our hostile reality
To seize control
Take violent action

The end-times arrive
Prophetic signs
Humanity defiled
By our sons of Belial

Gods disdain
focus the iniquitous
Divine in malice
perfect unprejudiced
Expostulate vile villains

Nefarious hearts
No wealth of moral
Only moral is wealth
Engage the knave

Treat the sick
Combating against spiritual health
Can't run from sin
Cannot run from yourself

Dimensional Transcendence
Apocalypse
Accelerates the end.
This blood will rinse

Premium Member Pope Francis

Pope Francis's belief in the Almighty
has been brought to serious question,
when, on his speech on Origins, 
the Bible received nary a mention -
save for a passing glance at Genesis.
His credibility has dwindled rather perilous
it seems - considering, of course, Catholicism's 
typical rep of condemning holy writ to ostracism.
The acolytes "explode" with his
acceptance of Naturalism,
Evolution and Bigbangerism.
In a pinch he waved his magician's wand
and pronounced all prior blasphemies - gone!
God - he stated - has no such pointy stick
of which to create all, with a simple flick
of his wrist. The Almighty has limits
and shall conform to Francis's rigid
interpretation, thereof. He tips his hat
in one last show of priestly decorum:
I wish you all a most bless-ed
novus ordo seclorum.



NOTE: The term "novus ordo seclorum" is Latin for "New World Order". If you ever forget how to say it, or spell it, just pick up any American federal reserve note - it'll be right under the pyramid with the all-seeing eye.

Coming Up

I got the voice, babe, and you got the rhyme, 
But we're searching our pockets and can't find a dime,
And baby, it's only a matter of time,
'Fore we climb up the rope and our bell's gonna chime.
Step up to the plate, baby, swing, batter, batter. 
Hit out the park, the sound barrier shattered,
And the people are talking all slander and chatter,
But they all look like ants from the top of the ladder.
And soon we'll have all of the things that we deserve, 
Swimming in gold like the federal reserve, 
The skeptics and haters will all lose their nerve, 
When on platinum platters, their heads will be served.

Premium Member Thinking

When I was young, seems everything intrigued
From the morning sun, to the evening breeze
Whether, working the farm, till I was fatigued
or learning the secrets of earth, like genetic disease

My journey in life, took many turns and twists
forming my opinions, of how life is best lived
preserve the earth, so children know what exists
Free to walk, see and learn concepts, yet derived

I see children as the wealth, to guard and preserve
Think of others not oneself, a better man will emerge
False idols say, follow the path to the federal reserve
If silver or gold is wealth, this curse you can't purge

Teach all our children, to learn from their elders advice,
before, deciding their path or worth, know the price

Crazy World

Crazy World

It’s funny how
The universities are still in business
Of producing graduates
That speak funny English
And hardly make invention
And the stock market falls
Down street tumbles
That lets people buy
And make profit
Like grandpa used to say,
True intellectualism died
In the year 1929
With the rise in acumen inflation
It was then that
This Federal Reserve of Ignorance
The true villain of this quandary
Traces its genesis
Hope that explains succinct
This universal impotence

Land of the Brave and Free

In the land of the brave and the free, and the eagle,
there exists a new breed of man,
who makes corruption and theft legal,
and they do it simply because they can!

They pay billions to the party politicians,
to allow them to operate sans regulation,
they have made it their sole mission,
to control the central power of the nation.

The president has given them the keys,
so they run the federal reserve,
and he's done this because he's,
wanting a second term so he can serve,

not the people whose votes put him in power,
but this new breed of snake oil sellers,
who, even though they should hide and cower,
still appear on tv where they tell us,

that they never did anything wrong,
that their type of stealing's ok,
and that if we all want the economy strong,
then the only way to have it is their way!

I have one question for the Great Democracy,
'why did your people, the brave and the free,
allow the unbridled growth of such a kleptocracy? '
It has blighted the lives of billions, and me!

Premium Member Turning To Cicero

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance."  Cicero , 55 BC
 

controversy over government nothing new

Civil War? oxymoron

in a country divided, there is no civility

protestors fume on Wall Street

Tea Partiers toss their caffeine into the mix

Federal Reserve makes unauthorized loans

but to whom we do not know

states debate seceding from the union

families learn to live on budgets

countries spend what they don’t have

why don’t we learn from history?

“Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s”

is there anything left for us?

look to Cicero and sages of the past

Plato and Socrates will set the disenfranchised straight too
